Chapter 308 - 121: Dominator of Death! Advent (Part 2)

She seemed to have no desire to waste any more words with Lynch. As soon as she finished speaking, the silvery moonlight swirling in her eyes began to rapidly fade and recede. The possessing consciousness withdrew like a receding tide.

Sea Song's eyes, in turn, returned to their clear, sea-blue color. At the same time, her body swayed slightly, as if she had just awoken from a dream.

She first looked around blankly. Then, she seemed to come to her senses and said urgently, "My... My Lord, I'm sorry. I... It's all my fault..."

It was quite obvious that even while she was possessed, she had been able to see and hear everything that transpired.

Seeing her look of self-blame and regret, he consoled her in a gentle tone, "It's alright. You can't be blamed for something that's impossible to guard against."

"Besides, this was actually a good way to communicate. At least, it's better than mutual suspicion."

"Right. You must have seen and heard what just happened. I need you to go to the ruins in my stead and pay a visit to the Moon Priestess..."

"Yes, My Lord." She agreed solemnly. Then, she pulled Esther—who was still curiously pawing at her, confused as to why her aura had changed—off of her and handed her directly back to Lynch.

Soon, under Jinke's skilled operation, the Teleportation Gate was once again erected and activated.

Sea Song took a deep breath and stepped into the Teleportation Gate without a backward glance.

Spatial ripples undulated, and her figure quickly vanished.

All that was left was to wait patiently.

About an hour passed, just as the Teleportation Gate's Energy Crystals were about to be depleted.

Finally, the Space Mirror Surface began to fluctuate once more.

Sea Song's figure emerged from the light.

In just those few steps she took to emerge, Lynch and the others keenly sensed that Sea Song's entire demeanor had undergone a heaven-and-earth-shattering change.

She still wore the same simple dress, but her body seemed to be draped in a hazy veil of moonlight, giving her a somewhat sacred air.

Evidently, Sea Song had successfully received the inheritance and benefited immensely from it!

"My Lord." Sea Song walked up to Lynch and, just as before, bowed slightly, holding up two items in her palms for him to see.

It was a ring and a stone that emanated a soft, milky-white halo.

The ring was of an ancient and elegant design. Its band was made of a silvery-white metal the color of moonlight, and it was set with an exceptionally pure Moonstone.

The stone was even more peculiar. It was about the size of a fist, translucent white, with a surface as smooth as a mirror. Light flowed ceaselessly within, as if it contained a small, concentrated piece of moonlight. The mere sight of it was enough to calm one's mind.

"My Lord, the great Song of Elune has officially accepted me as her disciple. She has taught me the introductory Meditation for a Moon Priestess and a few basic Magic skills." Sea Song's voice had become even more ethereal and pleasant to hear. "These two items are what my teacher asked me to bring to you."

She first handed the ring to Lynch. "This is the [Moonfire Ring]. My teacher sealed a complete Tier Seven [Moonfire Skill] within it. It is extremely powerful and has additional purifying and suppressive effects against evil, Undead, and Abyssal Creatures. But..."

She paused for a moment before continuing, "This Moonfire Skill can only be activated once. After it's used, it needs to absorb [Moonlight Essence] to be recharged."

'A Tier Seven Moonfire Skill! And it even has special purifying and suppressive effects!'

Lynch was delighted and immediately took the ring, turning it over in his hands.

This Moonfire Ring was clearly more practical than the Hellfire pendant.

The Hellfire was powerful, but extremely difficult to recharge.

'As for Moonlight Essence... although it sounded rare, at least its source seemed to be the moon. Besides, with a genuine Moon Priestess apprentice like Sea Song around, it would obviously be easier to find a way to obtain Moonlight Essence.'

"A fine treasure."

Feeling the surging and pure power contained within, Lynch couldn't help but voice his praise, and he then slid the Moonfire Ring directly onto his finger.

'For a long time to come, this Moonfire Ring would probably be one of his staple pieces of equipment.'

At that moment, Sea Song held up the stone that glowed with a milky-white light and said, "This is a [Moonstone], the core material for building a [Moonlight Well]. My teacher also gave me a set of building plans for the Moonlight Well."

Her eyes shone with excitement as she explained, "Once the Moonlight Well is built, it can automatically gather Moonlight Essence. This essence can not only recharge the Moonfire Ring, but will also be of great benefit to my training and my study of the Moon Priestess's line of Magic. It even... has an auxiliary effect in purifying evil and nurturing life."

'A Moonlight Well?'

Lynch's eyes lit up even more.

'From the name and description alone, he knew this was definitely a special type of building, and most likely, only the High Elf Race knew the specific construction method. Having this Moonlight Well wasn't as simple as getting a "power bank." It could continuously produce resources and was a strategic magical building with multiple functions. With these building plans and the core material, Lakefront Town could build its own Moonlight Well. The future benefits would be endless.'

"'My teacher said that her sanctuary was severely damaged in the great war back then. The Moonlight Wells that maintained the sanctuary's energy cycle were especially hard-hit—most were completely destroyed, and those that weren't were contaminated by the Abyssal Aura.' A hint of regret appeared on Sea Song's face."

"'She no longer has the necessary materials on hand, so she could only provide one Moonstone and the plans. We'll need Lakefront Town to gather the other auxiliary materials ourselves to build our own Moonlight Well.'"
